Common Questions Answered

  • While hoping for a DUI charge to be dismissed is understandable, unless critical evidence is thrown out, a complete dismissal is unlikely. However, in some cases, a reduction to a “wet reckless” charge, which is a reckless driving offense involving drugs or alcohol, might be possible. This charge carries the same penalties as a normal reckless driving conviction but includes a $200 “alcohol and drug countermeasures” fee​​.
  • For multiple DUI offenses in Indiana, the license suspension periods vary based on the number of prior offenses. For a first DUI offense, the suspension can be up to 60 days (or up to a year for higher BAC levels). A second DUI offense can lead to a license suspension of at least one year, and for a third DUI offense, the suspension period is at least one year, with a minimum of 10 years if the prior offenses occurred within the last 10 years. It’s important to note that these suspensions can be more severe based on the specifics of the case and the BAC level at the time of arrest​​.
  • In Indiana, if a driver is arrested for a DUI and there is at least one passenger under the age of 18 in the vehicle, the DUI is elevated to a level 6 felony. Penalties for a level 6 felony DUI can include six months to two and a half years in jail and a fine of up to $10,000. This is part of Indiana’s efforts to increase the consequences for driving under the influence, especially when minors are endangered​​.
  • DUI cases in Johnson County are handled by various courts within the county’s court system, which includes the Circuit Court, Juvenile Court, Superior Courts (1 through 4), and possibly others depending on the specifics of the case. For schedules of specific hearings, contact the respective court office​​.
